Hello!

After a successful 2 years fundraising for Jamie's birthday we thought we'd do it once again. After speaking to Jamie himself we thought it would be a good idea to go back to fundraising for CALM. It is a charity close to his heart and something he's always raising awareness for. 

Last year we raised £1508.87 for Children In Need and the year before £1710.13 for CALM. This year Jamie turns 30 so let's make this one bigger and better. We'll be making a birthday card once again with people's names who have donated and any messages they'd like to add (please leave a message with your donation but not too long!)

Thanks for your time.

A little bit about CALM:

The Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM) is an award-winning charity dedicated to preventing male suicide, the single biggest killer of men under the age of 45 in the UK. In 2015, 75% of all UK suicides were male.

CALM's values: (From their website.)

• CALM is about, for and on behalf of men. We use young men’s peers, their voices and interests to reach them. We seek to work with clubs, venues and brands with voices that men respect, feel comfortable with and trust to get our message across.
• We believe that there is a cultural barrier preventing men from seeking help as they are expected to be in control at all times, and failure to be seen as such equates to weakness and a loss of masculinity.We believe that if men felt able to ask for and find help when they need it then hundreds of male suicides could be prevented.
• We’re a campaign for all men, not just ‘service users’. All of us, at one time or another and regardless of gender, can hit a crisis and so we could all do with support when things get tough.
